Résumé : |
Decades of research on sun-induced skin damage have led the industry to develop anduse new UV filters especially for UVA protection and optimizing their formulation to afford a photostable and well balanced UVA/UVB protection. The European regulation is active in registering all sunscreens according to high standards of consumer protection through a dual commitment to safety and efficacy. The major challenges for both the cosmetic industry and health agencies are the following : I) consumer understanding and attitudes behavior implying and appropriate communication of sun-induced damage and guidance on the choice of an adequate protection product - II) improvement of the sensoriality of formulas for better compliance - III) increased efficacy together with a decreased amount of UV filters using synergistic combinations to reduce cost and environmental impact, and IV) protection of the environment through use of predictive methods and assessment of the ecotoxicity of both filters and products (impact on water, bioaccumulation) and their eco-conception (life cycle analysis, green chemistry). |
